Taper's Comments:

1 - HELP!! If you have any uncirculated SPIRIT shows, or better quality FM
broadcasts than what's been posted here before, please share them. If you
know anybody who has shows that fit this category that aren't on DIME, please
dub off their stuff and share it. I'm trying to write a book on SPIRIT and need
all the information I can get. I have a database of over 1500 gigs 1967-1996, and
want to find as much information as I can to add to it. If you have any memories
of where you saw SPIRIT, the more specific the better (venue, city, date, supporting
bands, etc.), I'd love to know that as well. Please leave that in the comments
section or PM me. Thank you!

2 - Show description & comments follow:
I likely would not have posted this, save that it's part of the first gig Derek St. Holmes
ever played with The Nuge. I suspect whomever taped this gave up due to all the FM
interference problems they must have been having. It starts off badly, but after about
80 seconds things become quite listenable. When the band isn't playing, there's some
hum, but I suspect this is coming off the amps. I would not recommend this for the
casual fan, but it's a pretty historical document for a Nuge fan of what was to come.
Ted mentions his recent appearance in Chicago, likely referring to the October 12,
1974 show at the "Aragon Ballroom", which is on DIME Torrent # 365655 as a reseed.
I hope a complete interference free post will turn up in the near future. Enjoy.
